The meteorological department reported that humidity in the city has reached 84 percent, which can make the weather feel hotter than the actual temperature.
Experts warned that the suspension of sea breeze may further increase the intensity of heat and humidity across the city.
Meteorologists explained that when sea winds stop and humidity levels remain high, the “feels-like” temperature can become significantly higher than the recorded temperature, increasing discomfort for residents.
Meanwhile, weather conditions in other parts of the country remain different. Several cities in Punjab, including Narowal, Pasrur, and Wazirabad, received rainfall that made the weather pleasant.
The Pakistan Meteorological Department has also predicted rain in multiple regions including Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Azad Kashmir, Gilgit-Baltistan, as well as cities such as Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Murree, and the Galiyat region.
